Sometimes it is through regulations that such discriminatory practices can be abandoned, especially if they are a hindrance to women’s progress and equality status. The burqua is a symbol of oppression, a simple of subservience, a symbol of ignorance and certainly a symbol of male supremacy. The burquaed women will never agree with the above statement as the level of ‘burqua-indoctrination’ is deeply entrenched. This is a tragedy!!
Cheers to France. They have the guts to pass regulations in the best interest of the nation and the long-term interest of the burquaed community as French citizens. A burquaed community in Australia means creating an underclass community, a divided community. It will come back to bite us all. Better to discard the burqua and see the world for what it is; evil is not out there, but within us. Seek not to hide behind the burqua for it doesn’t free the Satan within one!! Down with the burqua!!
